Well, Legace got lit up pretty good. Good to see the Wings capitalize on how slow the Blues were to open the game. Pavs gets back on the board and the power play gets one.

With the Blues up again on Thursday, it would have been nice to keep them down in the third but St. Louis kept fighting. We'll see what happens in the back end of this. Actually, you will, I won't 'cause I'll be on a plane. Such is life.

Since McCarty was bought out in 2005, Red Wings fans have continued to cheer for him even though he's on another team. I don't do this. I don't wish anything bad upon him, but his success means Calgary's success, and I don't want any team other than the Wings to succeed. Mac and Manny and Shanny are the bad guys now.

The final score was 5-1. You can (usually, depending on whether or not I'm actually around) get that info from the main DetroitHockey.Net page or the Gameday page for that particular game (in this case, here).

Not specifically because of the money, because he's not a Red Wing anymore. How many players from other teams do you root for? Not many, I bet. He used to be a Red Wing, he's not anymore, just like all the rest of the players in the league.

Sorry about the lack of comments, I was in the Captain's native province for the last few days. I agree even though they were once Wings and we all used to root for them, times have changed. They are the bad guys now. The only non wing player I will root for is Daniel Briere unless he is playing against the Wings. Then he can go to hell!
